In a Hospital, Health Care Until the Clock Runs Out

This one paragraph is instructive;
These days, it may be easier to define hospitals by what they are not. They are not places for the sick to get well, not unless healing takes place in the brief interval of time that makes the stay a compensated expense.  
'Your time in a stroke hospital is not enough to get recovered from any of the effects, maybe if you are lucky you will learn enough to compensate for all your deficits.' By Dean.
